[Sun Care] I use Hada Labo UV white gel for my face and love it, but need something similar but that’s cheaper for the body
I truly love this sunscreen. It works great, never burned with it, it smells nice (doesn’t have that horrible sunscreen smell), zero white cast, doesn’t clog my pores, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on my face. My only qualms are that it…
I truly love this sunscreen. It works great, never burned with it, it smells nice (doesn’t have that horrible sunscreen smell), zero white cast, doesn’t clog my pores, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on my face. My only qualms are that it will pill if I rub/scratch my skin like if I have an itch or something (but otherwise stays fine) and that my eyes can get irritated sometimes if it’s particularly hot out so sweat brings it closer to my eyes or if I rub my eyes at all it can sting after (or if I’m wearing it for a long time it’ll start to irritate toward the end of the day). So I have three asks Is there a way to prevent pilling with touching my face? Any product I can put over top? What suncreens are good for around the eyes so I can avoid the irritation issue and keep application away from eyes? Title, I love this one for the face but it would be way too expensive to use it for the body too. I’ll use it on my ears and the back of my neck but for my arms and hands I use Eucerin sun gel-cream (specifically the European one that says “sun allergy protect”). It works fine but it has that typical sunscreen smell and I hate it so much. I want something like the UV white gel that either has a very slight floral smell or next to no smell at all.

For the pilling, I've found that rubbing or scratching almost any sunscreen can make it roll up, so I usually just pat the area instead if I can. Around the eyes, Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun has been pretty gentle for me, although everyone's eyes are different. For your body, you might like Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Gel. It has a very light feel and hardly any sunscreen smell compared with a lot of Western brands. I've also HEARD good things about Biore UV Aqua Rich Body Care Serum if you can find it, but I haven't tried this one personally. Hopefully one of those gives you the same nice finish without costing as much as using your face sunscreen everywhere. Finding one without that strong sunscreen smell can be surprizingly hard, but they're out there. Good luck with the searh.
Verdio uv moisture gel comes in a 220 ml bottle and would have a gel cream texture for body sunscreen
